It was a tradition for Guardiola to reduce Pinto as the main goalkeeper for the match in the Copa del Rey. These conditions certainly continue in the quarterfinal despite facing an opponent who is a team of Madrid.
"I've decided to play Pito. He's a great goalie and I would be lying to myself if he does not play," Guardiola said at a press conference ahead of the game as quoted from the U.S..
Pinto also still believed Guardiola as Barcelona and Madrid in the final against Copa del Rey last season. Keystrokes that Barca should recognize the benefits of these eternal enemies with a score of 0-1, where the only goal created from Cristiano Ronaldo's header in injury time period.
"Anyone who saw action in recent years will know if he plays at a very good level," complete Guardiola.
